What Mahlasela told himself when he left Kaizer Chiefs for Polokwane City

Midfielder Kabelo Mahlasela admits it wasn't easy to leave Kaizer Chiefs for Polokwane City during the January transfer window.

This is because Amakhosi are in pole position to win the PSL title - something Mahlasela says he would like to achieve in his football career.

He further stated that he could have easily rejected the proposal to join a team that's fighting for survival, but his lack of game time at Chiefs was the reason he eventually agreed to move to the Limpopo province and prove his worth.

"It wasn’t an easy decision to leave Chiefs considering the fact they were in line to win the league and worse, I was joining a team that is fighting relegation," Mahlasela told Independent Media.
